Powlison splits his book into two parts. Part 1 focuses on how Scripture opens blind eyes and part 2 on reinterpreting life. In part 1, Powlison largely exposits Scripture and spends significant chunk of time in Ephesians, drawing out counseling implications from the gold mine of truths found in this letter. I found part 2 was extremely good and worth the price of the book. It may seem a little dated from 2003, but his interaction with contemporary psychological theories is exceptional. Powlison brings a keen eye to these man made philosophies that propose solutions for the problems people face. His critique on the love languages in chapter 14 is exceptional along with nearly every other chapter in section 2. The belief systems he interacts with have only grown in prominence since 2003, with others adding to the eclectic mix since then as well. The present age is a therapeutic playground. Powlison helps lead and guide the reader through the mix of psychological jargon and therapeutic cures with a Scriptural road map. His analysis not only debunks the myths, but he turns to Scripture for a deeper analysis of the human condition. ( )

I pray that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, The Father of glory, may give to you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of Him. I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened, so that you will know whata is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and what is the surpassing greatness of His power toward us who believe. Ephesians 1:17-19

That's an eye-opening request.
INTRODUCTION: By it I see everything else.
I suppose all of us who read Scripture find ourselves particularly gripped by certain parts.

PREFACE: My hope is that these books will do their part to assist the church in the care and cure of souls, and to encourage God's people, individually ad corporately, to lay hold of the promises and calling that are ours in Christ.
INTRODUCTION: But I know with certainty that in whatever proves worthy, credit is due to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, in whom we exult with an unknown worshiper: "Glory and honor, praise, adoration, now and forevermore be Thine."
